Clinton grew up around a woolen mill on the Raisin, and the village still keeps mill-town proportions — deep front lawns, big porches, streets that run down toward the water. Green Meadows Lawn Care & Landscape mows and trims those yards through the Lenawee County summer, cutting edges in along the sidewalks and the beds. June is the hardest month here; the grass is thick and the rain does not ask permission. Getting it cut clean anyway, lines straight and clippings swept off the walk, is the satisfying part. By evening a whole block looks like it agreed on something.
